Floral, peppery, creamy, dark currants are already easy-to-taste, and like. Medium-bodied, a bit on the herbal, leafy side in the finish, this is not quite as solid as it was in the barrel. Drink from 2025-2037.

Soft red fruits, herbs and cedar come through easily on the round, juicy, spice-nuanced, red berry nose and palate. Fresh and savory, give it just a few years of age and it will be showing even better. 89-91 Pts

The touch of spice adds a lot to the soft, polished, vibrant, sweet red fruits. The finish, with all of its black cherries, coffee bean and currants is already shaping up nicely. This is one of the better values for Cabernet Sauvignon dominated, Bordeaux blends. Drink from 2023-2039.

Medium/full-bodied, soft, round, polished red fruits, spice and herbs are easy to find on the nose and palate. The freshness, elegant styling and sweetness in the fruits is really strong here in this vintage. 90-92 Pts

Opaque in color, the wine is powerful, concentrated, lush and juicy. There is some noticeable oak, but there is so much fruit, the oak should integrate into the wine by the time it is bottled. The wine is made from blending 39% Merlot, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Cabernet Franc and 11% Petit Verdot. Charmail remains one of the most popular Haut Medoc wines for price and quality. 90-92 Pts

A jolt of fruit and tannin meet in the right place. You also find a strong mineral sensation, herbs tobacco and cedar in all the right proportions. Give it some time to age before popping a cork.

From a blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc and 9% Petit Verdot, and aging in 30% new French oak, this medium-bodied wine is easy to drink.

If you're seeking a Bordeaux value wine from the Left Bank, look no further. Lots of soft, polished, round, dark berries, licorice, coffee bean and earth are easy to find. Forward in style, this already fun to drink, Merlot dominated blend is a charmer.

This fully mature Haut Medoc, produced from an assemblage of 50% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon offers tobacco, earth, cassis and leafy forest aromas. Medium/full bodied, with soft textures that display the patina of age, the wine ends with a red plum, earth, herb and cranberry finish. There is no reason to hold this wine any longer. Drink up.
